Things to do for January 13, 2011

The Weekender

Shuffleboard, Sneaky Beer and Twin Peaks

Thursday

Resolutions: easy to make. Less easy to keep. So we’re setting you up with Fitbit, a wireless personal
training device that tracks every calorie you burn, even the ones from lifting a cocktail glass.
We’re also throwing in six gratis months of Premium Membership. Go ahead, have an extra Manhattan.

Last Call at Town & Country

You’ve whiled away many an evening here at the Mayflower, discussing your conquests over a dish of peanuts
and a birdbath-sized martini. Say your farewells, as the hotel gets ready for a renovation. First one to
find Spitzer’s initials carved in a table gets a free round. No, not really.

Playing Sports with a Drink

We know. The 30-degree temps can put the chill on your world-class fitness regimen. Not so your competitive
fires. Enter the winter season of bar games like cornhole, shuffleboard, bocce and skee-ball. Just make sure
it doesn’t conflict with your bridge night at Greenspan’s house.

Friday

SECRET BEER

A Dinner with Illicit Beers

Pretend for a moment that Woodrow Wilson is in the White House and you have to sneak your beer in under
cover of darkness. Here, you’ll wash down five courses with beers that are otherwise unavailable in DC,
with names like Cigar City and Pliny the Elder. So, it’s philosophical, too.

Sunday

BACKBEAT

Half-Off Drinks at Sushi Rock

The Arlington temple to AC/DC, Slash and dragon rolls is knocking 50% off something new every night—like
glasses of champagne on Sundays, bottles of sake on Mondays and beer on Wednesdays. After which you’ll be
requesting Whitesnake.

Wednesday

PEAK PERFORMANCE

WTF Wednesdays at Rock & Roll Hotel

By hump day of next week, you won’t just want a drink. You’ll want something bizarre and incongruous.
Like three episodes of Twin Peaks on the big screen, along with $3 drinks and half-price burgers.
It still won’t make sense.
